I'm 9 weeks and I just keep craving what I "cant have" *sigh*. I really want subway or a tuna sandwich but everything I read says no subway or no tuna. Can I eat subway if I get it toasted? Can I eat a tuna sandwich?

Tuna your allowed! I checked that with my midwife as I so craving it! Your allowed tuna just not a every day thing:) and subway I had no idea you wasn't allowed a subway? Is there a reason for that? I don't go to subway anyway because I'm gluten free but if I wasn't I would love to get a subway sandwich!!! Just thinking about it is making my mouth water!

Eat your sandwich girl! It's one sandwich. I don't think you need to worry about it as long as your not going overboard. Incorporate other things in your diet of course but don't ignore your cravings. I craved steak and vegetables like crazy and turns out I'm anemic. Your cravings can be a sign of a nutrient your body is lacking and maybe the oils in the tuna is what your body wants right now. Don't punish yourself. Just be cautious to the obvious things like eating undercooked meats and if it makes you feel better have them zap your sandwich.

I ate subway throughout my whole first pregnancy and my daughter was completely fine! :-] had it once or twice with my son in my belly now but have been craving over easy eggs and had a few..I'm sure he's alright.. :-]

I'm 32 weeks and my baby is right on track and perfectly healthy. I've eaten subway like twice (no guilt), raw salmon nigiri (my favorite thing ever), and I've had quite a few tuna sandwiches. There was a whole freak out session on another group I'm in for people due the month I am - not to stop eating what you love, just to be smart about it. If you're gonna go somewhere for the things "on the list" go somewhere you know is clean (so like obviously don't get sushi or tuna off a buffet).

Eat subway! But do get it toasted.. you are going to make choices the lists of "what not to do" is so long and ridiculous.. I personally still consume raw fish.. my body is very used to eating fresh raw salmon although I try and stick with cooked rolls such as a California, eel avacado, spicy crab.. and anything tempura is cooked.. do what is best for you.. don't stress enjoy

Yes people freak out. I am so used to raw salmon I couldn't give it up.. I eat a lot less but fish in general is a huge part of my diet.. I am glad I'm not the only one eating salmon. I had a man refused to serve me 1 cup of coffee.. he took it away and said I wasn't allowed to have it while pregnant.. after I paid!! I gently reminded him that it was the only coffee I would have for the day and I can have 200mg/day.. ugh people
